It is interesting to think what would of happened if the Passport was the first BB10 device. It's screen size might have intrigued the App developers and sparked more development than the Z10 did. Probably wishful thinking, but the Passport was an amazing phone.

Just realized there's a "night mode" function in the settings on the LE... and it allows you to calibrate the keyboard backlight brightness... Pretty cool. Never had a BlackBerry that allowed that function.

Nevermind, my KeyOne just updated to Oreo 8.1 and it also has this keyboard backlight brightness function. The KeyOne keyboard is brighter but both keyboards are unique in their own way.

I just typed a bunch of stuff using my KeyOne and instantly realized the difference between the LE's keyboard..

The KeyOne is a bit more difficult to type on. The LE's lightweight and matte finish and clickyness really is a drastic improvement. It might be my favorite keyboard to type on yet.. even better then the Classic and Q10 keyboards.

Sounds even more interesting to me that you mentioned the Classic in the keyboard feel. My Classic was/is my favorite BlackBerry PKB. What carrier are you using your LE on and how is signal strength compared to your prior BlackBerry 's?

I would say that Classic keyboard is much better then the one on K2LE. So it is very personal thing, depends what feeling and response from keyboard you expect. Classic keys are a little harder to press but much better response when it is pressed. LE keys are lighter but I am not sure with pressing that much as I am with Classic. I am doing a lot mistyping on LE but that may be because my fingers are still remembering keys size from Classic. Problem is space which is a little higher then other keys so I am typing space when when I want V or B. 1/4 of V/B presses, I also press space.. Will see in a few months if the phone ends thrown on the floor or not .

The speed key, I was looking forward to it but now when I have LE, I am not using the speed key at all. I am closing the apps all the time (or I think I am because I am closing it on recents and Android thinks he can think better then me... ) and when I need to switch between two apps - I double tap on rectangle to go to previous app.

I'm using Verizon... signal strength has been great, I'm out in Hawaii.

After about two weeks I gotta say, this phone is great. It beat my expectations which is all that matters. Still curious to see how the Key2 feels, but I might just hold out for the Key Thrice.

I wanted to give props to the BlackBerry Locker.. genius software.. Android BlackBerry is stepping their game up, especially with this new Hub in the beta.

I agree. This phone is really amazing, especially when considering the price (I paid EUR 389,--).
I have not experienced any lag or other performance issues, and that was certainly not the case with my DTEK60. The phone is working awesome in colder conditions for example. The DTEK60 was having battery and screen issues in those conditions. And it had lag issues after a couple of days of heavy use. Nothing of that with this LE so far.

I love how you can adjust the keyboard backlight and also those wicked android Euclid buttons.

The lightness really sold me. After holding this machine for days on end now.. whenever I pick up my KeyOne or Passport SE they seem pretty hefty and heavy. I vote for lighter although I do like the weight factor of those phones too.

I'd love to see the Key 3 to take advantage of all the screen real estate possible.. get rid of the bezels it's 2019.. I feel like BBMobile will make sure the Key3 has a different and way better screen than the KeyOne,Key2(LE)...I hope at least.
